depot-container-builds

Configures and runs Depot remote container builds using `depot build` and `depot bake`. Use when building Docker images, creating Dockerfiles with Depot, pushing images to registries, building multi-platform/multi-arch images (linux/amd64, linux/arm64), debugging container build failures, optimizing Dockerfile layer caching, using docker-bake.hcl or docker-compose builds, or migrating from `docker build` / `docker buildx build` to Depot. Also use when the user mentions depot build, depot bake, container builds, image builds, or asks about Depot's build cache, build parallelism, or ephemeral registry.

Quality

Content

72%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The content is highly actionable and concise, packed with executable commands and examples, but it is a monolithic single file with no progressive disclosure and lacks explicit validation checkpoints for its destructive and batch operations.

Suggestions

Add explicit validation/verification steps for destructive or batch operations (e.g., verify a pushed image with 'docker pull' / 'depot pull', confirm cache reset succeeded) to lift workflow clarity above 3.

Split the Depot Registry and Special Output Formats sections into separate reference files (e.g., references/registry.md) and link to them from the body to add genuine progressive disclosure.

Trim the Builder Sizes pricing table and the descriptive Key Concepts bullets to essentials to improve token efficiency toward a 5.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and command-dense with terse inline comments, assuming Claude's knowledge of Docker. Minor over-explanation remains (e.g., Builder Sizes pricing table, descriptive prose in Key Concepts) that could be trimmed.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully copy-paste-ready commands throughout, a comprehensive flags table, an executable HCL bake example, and concrete recipes for migration, registry, and special output formats covering common cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Sections are well sequenced, but destructive/batch operations (push, save, cache reset, configure-docker) lack explicit validation checkpoints or feedback loops, which caps workflow clarity at 3 per the rubric.

3 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

No bundle files exist and the body is a single 215-line file; sections are well-organized but content like the Registry and Special Output Formats sections could be split into separate reference files with clear navigation.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is exemplary: third-person voice, explicit 'what' and 'when' clauses, comprehensive natural trigger terms, and a clear distinct niche with low conflict risk. No improvements needed.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'Configures and runs Depot remote container builds', building multi-platform/multi-arch images, debugging build failures, optimizing layer caching, and migrating from docker build — giving comprehensive coverage.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ('Configures and runs Depot remote container builds using depot build and depot bake') and when ('Use when building Docker images... Also use when the user mentions...') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Comprehensive natural trigger terms including 'depot build', 'depot bake', 'container builds', 'Docker images', 'docker-bake.hcl', and explicit user-mention phrasing a user would naturally say.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clearly niche Depot-specific triggers tied to a named product and its commands; minimal risk of triggering for unrelated skills.
